Saawan Makes Us Proud Yet Again, This year has been incredible for Farhan Alam’s film Saawan which has been bagging one accolade after another since it first released. So far, the film had won ‘Best Foreign Language Feature’ at The Madrid International Film Festival as well as two awards at The Social World Film Festival in Italy and also the ‘Best Foreign Film Award’ at the Alexandria Film Festival in Virginia, USA.
Saawan has also been selected as Pakistan’s entry to the Foreign Language Film category at the Oscars 2018. But just when we thought that the movie had been appreciated enough, we get to hear the good news that it has won another award, another ‘Best Feature Film’ but this time at the All Lights India International Film Festival which has made us proud of the team yet again.

The movie has been written and produced by Mashood Qadri and is based on a true story of a disabled child who lives in a valley in the mountains of Balochistan, who is rejected by his father, intimidated by society, harassed by friends and left alone due to his disability.
“We want to dedicate this award to all people with disabilities (ones that can be seen and ones that can’t) and to all the missing children in the world, you are loved and may Allah keep you safe,” wrote an emotional Farhan Alam and won our hearts.
